We had a great time at this house. The house is large with an amazing living room combined with kitchen. The kitchen has all you need even for a larger group cooking. We were only two people. You get an amazing view from the dining/living area. There are two floors: ground floor with kicthen, dining and living area and first floor with bedrooms. There is plenty of space. The decoration and overall ambience of the place is very special, warm and cozy. We would stay here again. Arnhild is a great host. We met in person and she gave us multiple great recommendations about the area. She also has maps and brochures available if you need to do some extra research to plan your activities. The communication was smooth with fast response, especially given that we have booked in a last minute. Keep in mind that you will be asked to clean the house before your departure which is no problem, but something to be aware of given the size of the house. Overall, a great choice!

The river house was such an awesome place to stay. The views were top notch, the waterfall 2 ft from my pillow putting me to sleep each night was priceless and will be missed (we slept like babies), and Arnhild was so helpful and responsive to help make our stay even better. She truly cares about her guests experience and it showed when she took the time to go over the local maps and "must see" spots. The house was equipped with everything you need and sitting out on the deck with some wine and local cheeses & meats was a perfect end to each day. Just a tip to all travelers who stay - super easy house to clean but it is a self clean house. Just return it back to the condition it was when you arrived and you are good to go. But Arnhild does give you great instructions on what needs to be cleaned and again it's super simple! We loved the river lodge and would enjoy coming back with some more family and friends! Awesome location and only 20 min to Odda and 20 min to the Utne ferry. I highly recommend this unique location, you will not be disappointed.

Respuesta de Arnhild:

Thank you for nice words - it warms my heart when I see guests have had a good time here :)

Wow, what can I say about this. Amazing views!!!! Sitting in that glass room and living room was the best with the scenery right there in front of you. Quiet, in terms of traffic and city noise, only the sound of the waterfall from the river, but that put us to sleep at night. The gardens are wonderful and I could have spent hours walking and checking out all of the flowers. For a family of three, we had plenty of space and the kitchen has all you need to cook with. I am a property rental owner myself and rank this at the tops for a rental. Arnhild was right there to check us in and show us around the house and helpful if we needed it, by responding to our e-mails promptly. The location is great as a base camp to visit other villages in the region, but to come back in the evening was the best part of my day, just sitting and watching the light, clouds even the rainbows on the first day we (URL HIDDEN) was all magical! She even had kitties, and since we are big cat people, we loved that as well, felt very homey. I think Arnhild could even represent this house as a place gardeners could come to and work in her garden, with the views it would be the most relaxing and enjoyable place on earth. So happy we chose this home to enjoy 5 days! We will be back if visiting Norway again!

Fantastic host, fantastic location! Great recommendations and so much to see in the immediate vicinity without even visiting the main sights... the cottage is absolutely perfect in every way. Thank you Arnhild, we'll definitely be back!

As host I try to have good communication with the guests in advance to give advice regarding hiking and sightseeing, what to bring in baggage depending on what activities the guests want to do, if high moutain hikes are on program many needs good hints etc.
I also explain which route is good to take to get here depending from where thye come.
I try be aound when guests arrive, and since I am living in the middle between these 3 rental houses that is normally easy.
